Subject: If this was Saturday it was my first show, myself and four others were so excited that we left Staten Island about noon. We had already ingested and did not know we're else to go. We sat on the cold sidewalk in front for some and then went to the Kentucky fried chicken to get warm. The lighting in fast food restaurants always made your peaking face look handsome. We then had enough chicken and went back outside and waited to get in for hours. As the line formed down the block to get in we were the first five. Once we got in maybe ten others also came in and then no one entered for what seemed eternity. Phoney tickets stopped the flow of deadheads. a hippy girl in a long dress gave me chocolate candy and I took two. Only two she warned. We'll eventually the fans came in. Well a lot that night, angry fans were coming up the fire escapes and busting in through the fire exists in the balcony and some got their heads busted. Most people left the balcony seating but I could not get up for a long time.well the music was wow and esp test was weird to me, I did not what was going on, we'll eventually the concert was letting out and it seemed everybody was a bit lost, I was ! Well I am 62 now and it would have been fine if that show never ended and it some ways it has not. I remember thinking I guess the whole world will be cartoon from here on out. Thank you Grateful Dead and whoever is responsible for this archive, bless you.
Subject: Good Energy Here
Subject: Wow. Not one person....
The six concerts involved in this experiment were held at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester, N.Y., approximately 45 miles from the Dream Laboratory. Music from a Grateful Dead album had figured prominently in a previous ESP experiment at the laboratory (Krippner, 1971) ((February 1971, to be precise. These shows.))
Two "psychic sensitives," Malcolm Bessent and Felicia Parise, served as subjects for this study. Both had participated in previous studies of extra-sensory effects at the Dream Laboratory (e.g., Krip-pner, 1970).
Each of the six concerts was attended by about 2,000 persons. Further, it was apparent to observers at the concert that the majority of the people in the audience were in states of consciousness that had been dramatically altered by the time the slide was presented. These altered states of consciousness were brought about by the music, by the ingestion of psychedelic drugs before the concerts started, and by contact with other members of the audience. At 11:30 P.M., the following six-slide sequence was projected on a large screen:
1. YOU ARE ABOUT TO PARTICIPATE IN AN ESP EXPERIMENT.
2. IN A FEW SECONDS YOU WILL SEE A PICTURE.
3. TRY USING YOUR ESP TO "SEND" THIS PICTURE TO MALCOLM BESSENT.
4. HE WILL TRY TO DREAM ABOUT THE PICTURE. TRY TO "SEND' IT TO HIM.
5. MALCOLM BESSENT IS NOW AT THE MAIMONIDES DREAM LABORATORY IN BROOKLYN.
6. At this point, a randomly selected art print was projected on the screen.
IE: On the night of February 19, 1971, "The Seven Spinal Chakras" was randomly selected as the target picture. This painting shows a man in the lotus position practicing logic meditation. All seven "chakra" (energy centers of the body, centering around the spinal column) are vividly colored.
Is it any wonder there was some 'magic' in the air this night, above others? Three from the Vault.
Subject: First Dea and Birdl!!!
Subject: sweet!
Subject: ahh dark hollow
Subject: great job on the matrix
This recording begins with some tuning/tinkering by the band, a few melodies played, before going full steam ahead with "Truckin'" et al. If you're a Pig fan, you'll love this show. "Easy Wind" is great and "Good Lovin'" stretches for about 20 minutes and the crowd loves it, really loves it!
The boys also shred the hell outta "JBG" and then debut "Bird Song," which is very gentle and simple.
Great show overall, minus 1 star b/c this is not perfection (but close to it). Kudos to those who mixed and transferred this show to the archive.
